This is another sleeper, get it and drink it soon - 2006 Concannon Vineyard, Concannon Chardonnay

Tastes good! This is another sleeper, get it and drink it soon as 2006 Chardonnay may move past its time soon. Right now it is pretty darn good for $7 a bottle. Another California winery founded before 1900, and evidence that the older CA wineries have bargain prices for good wines. Their cost of capital must be very good in relation to the new wineries who have substantial capital invested so must charge those high prices.

I recall visiting a winery lately and choking on the prices of their wines at over $30 a bottle. I asked them why their wines were $30+ and they said; ‘it is based on the number of cases we can produce.’ Okay; shouldn’t it be based on quality? Am I missing something?

Times are ah ~ getting pretty tough; I recommend they revisit that tactic and read the reviews at www.goodwinecheap.com. This site is going to smart up the consumer. High brow is out and good wine cheap is in.
